Top Ten Hockey Trivia Questions

Through the wonders of email I recently was reconnected with an old friend from high school. We got into a little trivia tussle, trying to one up one another with some hockey humdingers.

Conveniently, we posed five questions each, which adds up to ten, which makes for an easy Top Ten list! Post your answers in the comments. I will post all answers in the comments late tonight.

1. Who hold the Oilers record for most shutouts in a career?

2. Who is the only player in NHL history to be drafted twice in the first round, by different teams, in different years? Hint, he's still playing in the NHL and is a D-Man.

3. Who was the first Swedish captain in NHL history?

4. The first official NHL draft commenced in 1969. From then until now, how many brothers have been picked in the 1st Round - 1st, 2nd, or 3rd overall? There are 4 pairs and 3 pairs were picked in different drafts.

Bonus Question: There is also 1 set of first cousins that you could add to this list.

5. What do Patrick Marleau, Eric Staal, Dan Boyle, Marc Savard and Nathan Horton all have in common? Hint: It's something they never did.

6. What former NHL player shares the exact same birth date as Mario Lemieux?

7. Who was the last goalie in the NHL to play without a mask?

8. Which of these superstars did NOT have a brother who also played in the NHL?

Gordie Howe

Mario Lemieux

Bryan Trottier

Patrick Roy

Ray Bourque

9. Three retired players have scored 50 or more career short-handed goals. One was Wayne Gretzky. Name the other two.

10. Two retired goalies are tied with the most goals against in a career (regular season) with 2756. Name one of them.
